Ming Yusheng was annoyed, and upon seeing the expressions of the people in the room, he knew something was amiss.
He smiled at Fang Meiyan, "Wife, what's going on? Don't beat around the bush. You can't all gang up to bully me, the head of the family, can you?"
Ming Yusheng sat down, and Fang Meiyan smiled as she slowly explained everything.
Ever since they learned about the land owned by the Ming family, both the Qin family and Fang Meiyan's maiden family, the Fang family, had planned to lend a hand to the Ming family.
However, Qin He's first thought was to recover the losses.
Otherwise, even if the Qin family and the Fang family lent their full support, the 30 billion would still be a shared loss among the three families.
Especially since Fang Meiyan had a younger brother, the Fang family couldn't fully assist.
"He'er deliberately set up a trap. When she knew it was a mountain range, she thought of using the gold mine to trick the Lin family. So on Mom's birthday banquet, she deliberately went to that piece of land secretly."
Qin He's method was also simple. She knew Lin Lei had an insider in the Ming Corporation and thought there must be one in the Ming family as well.
She deliberately went out the back door that day, letting the insider know she had gone to that piece of land.
Later, Lin Lei naturally sensed something was wrong and sent people to investigate. They saw Qin He and Gu Qishen looking at the land together. After changing to a jeep, the car was filled with detection equipment.
This was done intentionally for others to discover. Although it sounded simple, it was difficult to achieve without appearing deliberate.
Lin Lei immediately had people conduct tests. Qin He and Gu Qishen set up checkpoints everywhere, leaving a small passage. Shortly after entering, they had already buried gold underground in advance.
Qin He smiled, "Although those gold bars are valuable, they are not much compared to 30 billion."
Ming Yusheng clicked his tongue, "How much did you bury?"
Qin He smiled, "Not much, a little over a hundred kilograms."
Ming Xue's eyes widened, "Sister, gold is over 300 per gram now. A hundred kilograms?"
"Thirty thousand per kilogram, a little over a hundred kilograms—"
Ming Chi calculated and looked at Qin He, "So, you buried over 30 million in that land?!"
Qin He chuckled sheepishly, "Although the expense was not small, Uncle lost over 30 billion, so this is insignificant."
Ming Yusheng pondered for a few seconds, "En, the Lin family thought it was a large gold mine and even gave an extra billion. Calculated this way, the net profit is 970 million."
Qin He smiled, "Uncle, it's a billion. I've already sent people to retrieve the gold."
How could she possibly leave over 30 million there?
Qin Yun narrowed his eyes, "Where did you get the gold bars?"
Qin He thought for a moment, then honestly said, "Gu Qishen gave them to me. I couldn't gather so many gold bars myself at the time, and all the necessary equipment was also provided by Gu Qishen."
The Ming family's expressions all changed.
Qin Yun's face turned cold, "He's still not giving up!"
Qin He chuckled, "This time he has helped a lot. Now that our two families are cooperating, Brother, I've forgotten everything, so don't hate him anymore."
Seeing Qin Yun's displeased expression, Fang Meiyan quickly helped Qin He change the subject.
"This is good, but I'm afraid the Lin family will later use the excuse that we cheated them, and there will be a lawsuit again."
Qin He sneered, "Can they win? What? We bought it from them for 30 billion, and they bought it back with a 1 billion increase. Is that not a normal price increase?"
"Setting aside whether they can win," Ming Yusheng said with a smile, "there is surveillance in the small building. Otherwise, why do you think I let them go there to talk? The sounds of Lin Lei and his wife crying and holding onto my leg are all recorded. He said he did something wrong, and his father's soul would take him down every day, which is why he wanted to buy the land back. If he dares to cause trouble, I'll just release this recording."
Qin He smiled, "Uncle is right. We never said there was a gold mine here, and he himself said he was afraid of ghosts visiting him. What reason does he have to find us? We should be the ones suing him."
Old Mrs. Ming, hearing this, had a smile on her lips.
This time, the smile was truly relieved.
"One of our Ming family's great difficulties has passed just like this," Old Mrs. Ming smiled at Qin He, "This is all thanks to Xiao He. Otherwise, our Ming family would have truly—"
Qin He shook her head, "Actually, I only thought of the gold mine for this idea. The rest was all—" implemented by Gu Qishen.
After she came to Haicheng, she didn't have many people. If she used the Ming family's manpower, Lin Lei would surely find out.
"If it was just rumored that the Qin family was acquiring that land, Lin Lei would have been suspicious," Qin He said softly, "Fortunately, Gu Qishen was willing to cooperate—"
She looked at Qin Yun's increasingly cold face and finally shut her mouth honestly.
"We should really invite Mr. Gu for a meal sometime," Fang Meiyan said with a smile. "Yusheng, stop looking so glum. You should know how significant this matter is."
Thirty billion.
For the Ming Corporation, it was more than just a severe blow; if handled improperly, it would lead to bankruptcy.
Old Mrs. Ming thought for a moment and sighed, "Yusheng, from now on, no matter what happens, you must discuss it with your wife before acting!"
The Ming family was reunited, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Although they appeared happy during this period, everyone's heart had been tense with worry for the Ming Corporation.
Now, they no longer had to worry, and they could finally exhale.
Qin He said with a smile, "It's a pity that the Lin family profited. They scammed us out of 30 billion initially, and now they've only returned it! If you ask me, they should have paid another 30 billion to truly vent our anger!"
Ming Yusheng sneered, "The Lin family has sold all their assets, and they still can't raise 5 billion. After returning this time, they added another billion. Lin Lei must be heartbroken to death."
Fang Meiyan's voice was gentle, "The Lin family's reputation in Haicheng is ruined. Xiao He, don't worry, our family won't let them off."
"Not only the Ming Corporation, but also the Qin Corporation," Qin Yun said from the side.
Qin He thought for a moment and smiled, "Indeed. When I get back, I'll tell Wanwan and Yan Chen as well."
If several families jointly cornered the Lin family's business, then it would truly be considered venting their anger.
Everyone was very happy, and Qin He smiled.
"Uncle, don't spread the word about this for now, and don't target the Lin Corporation yet."
"Why?"
Qin He smiled, "Wait until the Lin family discovers it themselves. Lin Lei loves to show off so much; this news probably won't be hidden for long."
However, what no one expected was.
In the afternoon, the news that the Lin Group had discovered China's largest gold mine went viral on social media.
Among the trending topics, discussions were constant.
[Good heavens, nearly a thousand kilometers!]
[How high is the content? Can I go and steal a piece?]
Amidst the heated discussions, the Lin Corporation had yet to issue any official statement.
At 4 p.m., Qin He left the Ming residence through the back door.
Gu Qishen's car was already waiting at the entrance of the Ming residence.
Qin He's lips curved slightly as she got into the car.
Gu Qishen, sitting in the back seat, looked up at her from his tablet.
"Everything has been handled. Thank you for this time," Qin He expressed her sincere gratitude.
Gu Qishen's eyes were deep, "You're welcome."
